He stops just before he says

"Oh, I never lived before you

And I sure as hell won't live after you're gone"

She waits for the words to come

But they never fill the silence

And it seems like silence now is all they have

Somehow from above himself

He saw them smashed into the pieces

That she'd stuck together patiently for years

"Now drink, let's drink to our health

And they can fold us in the creases

So that no one sees us shatter into tears".

He says

"I don't know how to make this right"

She says

"Well just stop trying to make this right

And what if nothing breaks

What were you bracing for?"

She says.

Somehow he can feel her still

But like the sky painted on ocean

Oh, it only takes a ripple to dissolve

Some pain only light can kill

So let's dissuade you from the notion

That this is gonna take a miracle to solve.

He says

"I don't know how to make this right"

She says

"Well just stop trying to make this right

And what if nothing breaks

What were you bracing for?"

She says.

He says

"I don't know how to make this right"

She says

"Well just stop trying to make this right

And what if nothing breaks

What were you bracing for?"

She says.

He says

"I don't know how to make this right"

She says

"Well just stop trying to make this right

And what if nothing breaks

What were you bracing for?"

She says.
